Qi Ning came out of Gu Qinghan's boudoir, and he didn't have time to put on his boots, so he could only grab his boots and run, turning over the backyard, only then did he put on his boots and sneak back to his house, but his expression was not relaxed.

He knew that Gu Qinghan had already told him everything he knew, and Mrs. Tai was afraid that he would not let Gu Qinghan know about other more secret things.

Qi Ning could detect the fear in Gu Qinghan's heart, and now that he thought about it, the things that Mrs. Tai did, let alone Gu Qinghan, would be frightened by any woman.

Since he knew a lot of clues, he didn't want Gu Qinghan to be too scared, and he didn't plan to involve Gu Qinghan in the rest of the matter.

Tonight's information is enough for Qi Ning to know that from the day she stepped into the Jinyi Marquis Mansion, Mrs. Tai has set a trap, since the old witch was able to turn the brilliant Jinyi Shizi into a fool, then when necessary, the old woman will never be merciful, and will definitely be ruthless to herself.

Qi Ning only feels a little fortunate now, if he hadn't discovered the secret, I'm afraid he would have been kept hidden, if the old woman really wants to attack herself one day, she really doesn't have anywhere, and it is very likely that she will succeed.

No matter what grievances Mrs. Tai has with Liu Suyi, the old woman is already a huge threat to herself in the Jinyi Marquis Mansion.

Qi Ning knew very well that in the face of this kind of threat, if he was just on guard day and night, it would be impossible to fundamentally solve the problem, and if he wanted to protect himself and Gu Qinghan, he could only strike first and get rid of the other party before he made a move.

Qi Ning didn't know how much strength the old woman had in her hands, and even whether there were only two bull-headed and horse-faced people around her, Qi Ning couldn't be sure, but he understood that before getting rid of the old woman, he first had to find out the two bull-headed and horse-faced people, and first cut off the power around the old woman before he could do anything to the old woman.

It is naturally not easy to find the bull head and horse face, and it is not easy to cut off the power around the old woman, Qi Ning knows that if he makes a slight mistake, he will fall into a desperate situation, so he must have enough patience just like a hunter catches his prey.

Fortunately, he also knew that with the current situation of the Qi family, the old woman would not act rashly, and the time left for him was quite sufficient, but from now on, his words and deeds really need to be cautious.

After a night of tossing, I was really a little tired, thinking for a moment, lying on the bed and falling asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, it was already three poles of the sun.

After Qi Ning got up and washed, he was thinking about sending the 20,000 taels of silver to Tianfu, only to hear Qi Feng already appear outside the door and say, "Master Hou, an invitation has just arrived." ”

Qi Ning said "oh", took the invitation in the past, opened it and glanced at it, frowning slightly, but this invitation was sent by Zhuo Xian'er.

He passed by the Qinhuai River yesterday, and learned that Zhuo Xian'er went out at night, and his heart was a little unhappy, and he received the invitation at this time, and he was not in a good mood, this invitation was exquisite, and it was fragrant, and the handwriting was beautiful, with a line of words: "I haven't seen you for many days, I often think about it in my heart, and I look forward to seeing you", and the payment is Zhuo Xian'er.

Qi Ning pondered for a moment, crumbled the invitation card into a ball, saw Qi Feng looking at him with a smile next to him, and frowned: "What are you looking at?" ”

Qi Feng hurriedly said: "The little one doesn't dare!" ”

Qi Ning raised a kick and was about to kick it over, Qi Feng flew out of the smoke, Qi Ning shook his head, thinking that since Zhuo Xian'er came to the invitation, it would be stingy if he didn't go, and there was nothing big about it today, just go over to see what Zhuo Xian'er had to say, clean up, change his clothes, and arrive at the main courtyard, before he went out, he saw a few people coming to the house, and glanced at it, only to see the two of them supporting an old man to the house, and Mr. Han bowed down to lead the way.

The old man is the third old lady of the Qi family, one left and one right, but it is Qi Bai, the fifth master of the Qi family, and Qi Song, the sixth master.

Yesterday, Gu Qinghan also said that he asked Qi Ning to invite the third old lady to come forward to preside over the marriage with the Shenhou Ximen family, but he didn't want the family to come uninvited today.

Qi Ning frowned slightly, Qi Bai and Qi Song glanced at each other, their expressions were a little embarrassed, and the third old lady was also a little embarrassed, but he tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't see Qi Ning.

Qi Ning sneered in his heart, secretly thinking that the Jinyi Marquis Mansion had severed relations with you, and you were still relying on the old man in front of Lao Tzu, the third old lady didn't look at him, and he didn't look at the third old lady, so he put his hands behind his back and went out.

Seeing that Qi Ning ignored him, Manager Han was suddenly a little anxious, and hurriedly glanced at Qi Song, Qi Song hesitated, but still smiled and said, "Master Hou, this morning, you want to go out?" ”

Qi Ning saw him talking, smiled, turned his head to look, and pretended to be surprised: "Yo, are you here?" I really haven't seen it. It's not too early, I don't know what you're doing? ”

Qi Bai laughed dryly and said, "Master Hou, my father heard that Master Hou got married, this is.... This is a major event for the Qi family, my father thinks that there must always be an elder who will come out to preside over the overall situation, after all, the Shenhou Ximen family is not an ordinary family, and the etiquette cannot be missing, and it cannot be neglected over there, so ......! ”

Qi Ning thought to himself that it seemed that as he expected, these people saw that the Jinyi Qi family had begun to gain a firm foothold in the court, and now they had married the Shenhou Ximen family, and their strength was even stronger, so they had the heart of clinging again, and they were cheeky and uninvited.

However, he also knows that the marriage with the Shenhou Ximen family, after all, is a major event of the two families, and it is not allowed to be sloppy, and there are a lot of things that need to be done before getting married, although Gu Qinghan is shrewd and capable, but after all, she is a woman, and it is not good to show her face, and the identities of other men in the house are not enough to preside over this matter, so you can't do everything yourself when the time comes.

Although the three bedrooms of the Qi family are disgusting, they are really usable now.

He deliberately put his hands behind his back, let out an "oh", and asked, "Are you here to be the master of the Jinyi Marquis Mansion?" ”

The third old lady blew his beard, still tilted his head and didn't speak, Qi Bai was already embarrassed and smiled: "Where is the Hou Ye." The Hou Mansion of Jinyi is the master of the Hou family, and now the Hou Ye is going to get married, such a big event, we are all connected by blood, so ..... So always come over and see if there's anything you can do to help. Speaking of this, he shook the arm of the third old lady silently.

Since the third old lady came in person, he had already put down his face, and it was not good to keep it at this time, so he coughed deliberately twice, and then glanced at Qi Ning and said, "Although you sometimes do things inappropriately, ..... After all, it is the descendants of the Qi family, your grandfather and father are not there, I think there are some things for their sake..... It's always hard to deal with you. ”

Qi Ning let out an "oh" and smiled faintly, thinking that if you care, you can do it, Lao Tzu is afraid that you can't do it.

Qi Song had already let go of his hand, came over and said with a smile: "Master Hou, as the saying goes, fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers, no matter what festivals there were before, but if there is really something, our own family still has to come forward." When my father heard that you were going to get married, he was so happy that he didn't sleep all night yesterday, so he asked our brother to come with him early in the morning, saying that no matter what you think, we must help what we should help, and it is incumbent on him. ”

Qi Ning smiled and said, "The third old lady and the two uncles still seem to be affectionate and righteous. ”

"That's that, that's." Seeing Qi Ning's tone softened, Qi Bai immediately raised his eyebrows: "Master Hou, what do you have to do, although you command, we can't do big things, but the errand is okay." ”

Qi Ning thought for a moment before saying, "In that case, let's speak in the first room." ”

Chief Manager Han saw Qi Ning's tone softened, so he breathed a sigh of relief, he was the head of the mansion, and he knew the situation in the mansion very well, if the Jinyi Hou Mansion really did not get along with the entire Qi clan, then the Jinyi Qi family could really be said to be withered, and there were really many places where it was difficult to deal with the Ximen family this time.

Entering the lobby, Qi Ning didn't want to let him, so he sat down in the main seat, although the third old lady was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything, after everyone sat down, Qi Ning looked at the third old lady with a smile and asked, "I don't know how the third old lady wants to help me?" ”

The third old lady coughed twice before saying: "Although it is said that the emperor gave the marriage, our Qi family is not an ordinary family, and the six ceremonies that should be done are not missing." He raised his hand and stroked his beard and said: "Starting from Nacai, then asking for names, Najib, Najib, Nazheng, invitation, and finally greeting, that is not to break the rules." ”

Qi Ning really didn't understand the ancient family affairs, and after listening to what the third old lady said, he thought that since this old guy took the initiative to ask for this family matter, he didn't have to refuse people thousands of miles away, nodded slightly, and said: "These six rites are naturally indispensable." He smiled slightly and said, "Third old lady, after six salutes, I don't know how much silver it will cost?" ”

Seeing Qi Ning asking for advice, the third old lady sat up slightly straight, stroked his beard and said, "It depends on how the two sides talk, and it also depends on the man's financial resources." Our Jinyi Marquis Mansion is one of the four hereditary candidates of Great Chu, and since we want to marry, it is also a matter of face. Your grandfather has always been frugal, but when you got married, it also cost nearly 10,000 taels of silver, which is already very simple. ”

"In this way, this time the Hou Mansion has to prepare tens of thousands of taels of silver?" Qi Ning asked.

The third old lady said: "That is naturally indispensable. He glanced at Qi Ning and said, "The old man said something that you are not happy with, but it is also the truth." Your father was just an ordinary official woman back then, and this time you are the daughter of the marquis, face is even more important, and I am afraid that I can't stop it with ten thousand taels of silver. ”

Qi Ning sneered in his heart, but he still smiled quietly: "The truth is this, but ...... The third old lady should know that the Hou Mansion had encountered a lot of trouble before. When his father died, he spent a lot of silver, and the pawnshop was burned down, and a lot of silver was paid, and more than 200 mouths in the Hou Mansion were eaten and drunk and Lazar was a large amount of expenses, and now it is difficult to say 10,000 taels of silver in the account room, even if it is 5,000 taels of silver. Leaning forward slightly: "Except for Mrs. Tai, the old lady is now the eldest elder of the Qi family, and when she encounters this difficult matter, she can only ask the old lady to help solve it." ”
